MAYO Gall Duct Probe

Controlled Access for Gall Duct Assessment and Dilation

The MAYO Gall Duct Probe is a surgical probe used in general surgery for controlled access, assessment, and dilation of the gall duct. As part of the dilator and probe instrument family, it supports focused work in a confined anatomical area where careful advancement and tactile feedback are important to the operative workflow. Its purpose-specific design helps provide a dedicated option for surgeons handling gall duct procedures, while its straightforward format supports practical preparation, use, inspection, and reprocessing within established facility protocols. The instrument is suited to professional surgical environments requiring a probe tailored to gall duct work.

Use Cases

• Probe the gall duct during general surgical procedures.
• Support controlled dilation of the gall duct as required by the operative technique.
• Assist with focused access and assessment in a confined surgical field.
• Provide a dedicated dilator-and-probe instrument for gall duct workflow preparation and handling.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the instrument according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the probe before and after use for visible soil, damage, deformation, or other conditions that could affect handling.
• Handle the instrument carefully during transport, cleaning, and preparation to help protect its working surfaces.
• Store in a clean, dry, protected location after processing and inspection.

General use; follow facility protocols.
